Question 52

MENAT2 marksNeeds review
Air is contained in a frictionless piston-cylinder arrangement as shown in the figure.
Diagram for Mechanical Engineering question 52

The atmospheric pressure is 100 kPa and the initial pressure of air in the cylinder is 105 kPa. The area of piston is 300 cm². Heat is now added and the piston moves slowly from its initial position until it reaches the stops. The spring constant of the linear spring is 12.5 N/mm. Considering the air inside the cylinder as the system, the work interaction is _____ J (round off to the nearest integer).
